Thankfully the weather was sunny today which made for much more pleasant racing (and coaching). The race course was completely different from yesterday, being slightly more technical yet still open enough to really lay it down on some sections. Robbie made an appearance halfway through the day after being discharged from hospital where he'd been on a drip for 12 hours to recover from dehydration brought on from frequent vomiting.

After first runs the C2 crew were in first position, having put down a great solid run. Their second run was going similarly well until they capsized near the bottom of the course, and unfortuately didn't manage to roll on their upstream side in the fast current (...they swam...).

Ben and Emmie each placed 3rd in their respective classes, and some other good results were obtained in the K1 classes (see results page). The C1s were all very close after first runs, however, after Jack got a 50 in his second run, Craig and Jono pulled ahead, placing 9th and 13th.

All in all, it was a successful day of racing. Clearly not enough energy was expended during the race becase after returning to the hotel we spent an hour or so trying to make a human pyramid...much to the amusement of the locals.
